Marc Laporte of TikiWiki and some other folks are doing a push to revitalize the SVG-Edit project; we're going to have a conference call on December 4, 2012:

https://code.google.com/p/svg-edit/wiki/CommunityConferenceCall

This would be a great opportunity to bring up any potential issues that are blocking integration of SVG-Edit into MediaWiki and bringing it to production on Wikipedia sites.

Here's the current SVGEdit extension for MediaWiki: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SVGEdit

Some sample issues: * safe round-tripping when editing existing files (automate some compatibility testing?) * i18n/l10n overhaul (there are localized UI strings, but needs love. Consider setting up on TranslateWiki?) * UI customizability (can/should we adjust the UI to fit the surrounding site better?)

SVG-Edit is pretty much all client-side goodies, so on our end the main technical thing that needs doing before we can start actually testing it 'for reals' on production infrastructure is: * CORS support for upload.wikimedia.org < https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28700%3E

I know there's also some interest from the author of the TranslateSvg extension in SVG-Edit, there may be some other folks interested. :)
